Fedora 26 was set back by a delay last week and today it's been delayed again for another week.

Fedora 26 Alpha has been delayed for another week when at today's Go/No-Go meeting it was given a No-Go status due to outstanding blocker bugs.


As shown on the bug list, there are four proposed blockers and two accepted blockers. The bugs pertain to the pre-GDM GNOME Initial Setup, Workstation Live kernel panics during book, the Fedora 26 backgrounds being the same as Fedora 25, and other problems.

Notice of the delay was posted to the Fedora devel list. Fedora 26 Alpha is now delayed to 4 April while the final release has been pushed back now to 27 June, compared to the original target for releasing on 6 June. But given Fedora's history of release delays, presumably by GA time it will be pushed back into July.
